Wave-like Screen Under Fast Motion

Featured Replies

I've just upgraded to a 32" LED monitor that comes with a 2 ms response time. I set my PC's res to the monitor's native resolution at 1920 x 1080 (refresh rate at 60 Hertz), while FSX is set to 1680 x 1050 x 32.I notice when under fast movement, such as doing aerobatic flights, the screen at times shows up "ripples" or waves, what could be the problem here? Under normal flying, however, everything is okay. FPS set to 30.I do not see this issue when flying in Falcon 4.0 or IL2.Any advice much appreciated.Lep

HelloYou will need to set FSX to your Monitors native res 1900x1080 as this is the maximum it can displayyour monitor is downscaling the FSX resolution to your monitors native resolution as it is unable to display anything higher.You have bought an LCD TV, not a computer monitor hence the low resolutionA 30" computer LCD monitor would typically display at 2560x1600

It could also be vsync being off that gives those 'waves'. Force it on using the driver for your GPU (easy to do if it's a nVidia: if you have an ATI card read this: http://forums1.avsim.net/index.php?showtopic=283143 ).

It's VSync....turn it on, you will loose a couple FPS but it will not have "waves" anymore.Ron Hamilton

HelloVsync is only part of the problem here, until the OP sets his FSX resolution to a setting that his TV will actually be able to display he is going to have problems.

Lower than normal resolution doesn't necessarily mean it's a TV technically. I've seen several 24" monitors that use 1680X1050 for instance instead of the standard 1920X1200 - it's just a cost/design thing - many of the cheaper TN panels will do this...Lep,What is the actual brand and model on the monitor?I'm pretty sure the problem almost certainly is in fact Vsync too btw, your description sounds exactly like "tearing" from lack of it.

Problem SOLVED !! I forced the Vsync to ON like some of your suggestions, and voila, the waves/tears are gone !!FPS is set to 30, and it seems to hold okay. But I did notice some slight stutterings. Any idea how I can get rid of these stutters? Would be nice without them.By the way, the display is s Samsung PX2370, definitely a monitor, not a TV. Everything shows up great on this one.

HelloSorry for implying Samsung was a TV, the mistake came from the fact that you stated that it was a 32" monitor @ 1900x1060I see now that it is in fact a 23" panel and 1900x1080 is a normal resolution for a monitor this size.
